Now not to knock the 1980s synthesizer heavy sounds that a lot of people are clamoring for CP2077, but hear me out. The year is 2077, almost 100 years into the future from when Synthwave would become popular. It just doesn't make sense to me that people in 2K77 would be listening to music from almost a century ago. Of course it would still exist in the time period, but why would it be the defining sound of the era? It's like if we all only listened to 1920s Jazz today and that was the only popular form of music. This is the
FUTURE. I want sounds that emulate that. If they strictly relied on Synthwave for the game, it would feel more like a parody of a Cyberpunk world and not a living, breathing environment with a society that actually listens and plays it's own musical style.
I'm now going to divide this post up into 4 sections going into detail of how I'd like the soundtrack to be like in concept, and some specific artists I would have liked to seen CDPR work with. These will be
1. POP 2. PUNK 3. AMBIENT 4. OTHER.
- POP
To me, Pop of the future would be fast, bubbly, and high-strung.
Bubblegum Hyperpop, with blissful synths, ethereal singing, and a blistering BPM, each song will sound like you're manic on chems but you just don't care.
Now
Grimes was a great choice and
4AM is a perfect representation of what I'm talking about, but I would have loved to see some production or even an original song by
Sophie herself. Just take a listen to her song
Immaterial, It perfectly encapsulates the cyber-enhancement lifestyle.
"I could be anything I want,
Anyhow, anywhere, any place, anyone that I want."
She also is on the cutting edge of
Pop production, being a leading figure on PC Music. If she just ups her tempo she'd fit in perfectly with the hyper-spastic sounds of
Pop Music in 2077.
Kelela, with her
spiritual voice and futuristic-leaning style would also make a great fit for Cyberpunk with the right backing instrumental. While a little slow for what I'm envisioning,
Kelela would sound great on a
faster track if produced right.
Presenting an interesting
duality in their music,
Dorian Electra would be an excellent Popstar in Night City. In the future, gender is totally fluid when cybernetics are involved, and Dorian would
embody that with some fascinating songs. Dorian Electra could make a
larger-than-life androgynous figure tearing up the charts circa 2K77.
As far as producers go,
Iglooghost has to be the
most futuristic I've ever heard. Mixing tons of genres into one
tumbling, bouncing, whirlwind of a song after the other, Iglooghost is already living in 2077 as far as I'm concerned. He could turn
any song into a top charting hit in Night City.
Learning that
A.G. Cook is the founder of PC Music becomes evident when you hear his
stylistic production rinse over you in every song he's put out so far. So sweet they could
burst your heart, Cook's songs border some realm between
fairies and androids.
Finally, we have
Sinjin Hawke and Zora Jones, who's interesting uses of
drums and synths could really bring some flavor to the world of Cyberpunk 2077. This production duo would bring the best
sonic experiments to the dance floors of your local run-down warehouse rave. These two could turn a gunfight in a nightclub into a
sweetly maddening experience easily.
some other examples of chrome Popstars in the making include:
SHYGIRL,
ROSALÍA, and
Sarah Bonito.
- PUNK
Punk in the futuristic world of Cyberpunk 2077 should be an amalgamation of everything before it. My controversial hot take is that Rap is the new Punk. More and more rappers these days are embracing the Punk look and ethos, so who better to represent the rockerboys of 2K77 than some of the most popular heavy rappers today? The punk jams of tomorrow need more than just guitars and drums though, maybe include harsh synths and churning bass to really contemporize the barberous sounds of the underground.
Coming in fast and heavy is
Denzel Curry, with
a furious cadence and a rage brewing underneath every song, Curry would be perfect for a local punk frontman. Already having covered two classics, both
rock and
punk, Denzel can certainly
hold his own in the punk world.
While recording for Cyberpunk 2077 doesn't exactly seem like something
Death Grips would be interested in,
their sound would slot so flawlessly into the grimy world of Night City. Abrasive and unrelenting, their recent experimentation with
gabber is cyberpunk incarnate. The game comes across as a little too commercial for them sadly, but if they did write some original songs for the game, it would be a
headspin for sure.
Two figures in the underground punk rap scene today are the cruel boys in
City Morgue. With songs featuring biting lyrics about
violence in the streets, City Morgue's fierce voices mirror the rejection of society by the rockerboys in Cyberpunk. ZillaKami and SosMula are as close to
cyberpsychosis as it gets when it comes to their music. I can only imagine large pits of writhing kids as City Morgue's characters take the stage to
belt out the thrashing the crowd so desperately wants.
When it comes to creating the instrumentals of the future rock rebellion, look no further than
Clams Casino. A
veteran in the underground scene, Clams can add a
gritty electronic edge to the guitar riffs of the fictional bands in Night City. Clams Casino would provide an
ominous undertone to the already heavy-hitting songs of 2K77.
Having already tried his hand at
layering guitars into his deep void-like melodies,
Shlohmo is practically a given for production on songs from the rockerboys. I can already envision the
dark textures he would weave through the songs he would work on. Shlohmo can even compliment the rocketing pace of Punk with
his own take on drum and bass.
Machine Girl is a wild synthesis of
sound and frenzy. Assaulting your ears with a high BPM, Machine Girl is an attack of mish-mashed
rough ideas and broken harmonies. MG would certainly amp up the
viciousness of a band in the production department.
And lastly, we have the one and only
Arca.
Too dark for Pop, but almost too bouncy for Punk, Arca would bring an interesting dynamic to the music scene in the city. Their own sounds are
organic and evil, almost being a commentary on the "metal vs. meat" debate so prominent during this time period. Arca imposes their own brand of
neo-futurism that resides wholly in the Cyberpunk time period.
As far as actual punk bands are concerned, there are a plethora of great acts to choose from active today. Ideally I would choose something similar to the chaos of
S.H.I.T.,
School Jerks, or
VOID.
- AMBIENT
Here is where my contentious opinion comes into play. I do not want Synthwave to be the ambient music in the game. I've already stated my argument for this above, so here I'd like to show you what I would prefer instead. The sonic world of the Cyberpunk genre as a whole to me, is that of the drone of industry, the hum of machines, the steady marching of technology, so steady in fact, that it marches right over humanity. The world of cyberpunk is an unkind one. It is cold, alien, mechanical. The music of the game should reflect that.
I'm happy that
Nina Kraviz has been brought on board to represent Techno, but I would have loved to see someone like
Abdulla Rashim as well. AR is a master in
the hypnotic sound of dimness. Rashim would make an excellent addition to the roster for his
industrial trance-like feel.
Vatican Shadow's techno is laser-focused on
the political shortcomings behind war and imperialism, so I doubt he'd want to get involved with something as trivial as a video game, but he would make a
damn good soundtrack if he did.
Do androids dream of electric sheep?
Acronym might have the answer. Their songs are
dream-like, yet still feel like
a huge machine on a factory floor.
There is a massive stable of DJs CDPR could pick for this project, with a few examples being
Luigi Tozzi,
SHXCXCHCXSH, or
UVB.
I'm not too worried about actual ambient music in the game, I'm sure CD Projekt Red will whip something great up, but I'd love it if it could feel like these particular tracks:
Diamondstein,
Kuroi Ame, or
Hvide Sejl
I would however have liked to see one artist in particular make it onto the composer list.
Oneohtrix Point Never has been killing it the last few years with his own brand of
strange instrumental ambience. OPN has even worked on composing before, having just scored the latest Safdie brothers' film and working on their previous work
Good Time. I'd be excited to hear his
audio fingerprints all over the ambient side of the OST.
- OTHER
This section revolves around one small aspect of the soundtrack that I think would be an amusing detail. Say you enter a corpo office building and ever so faintly, you hear none other than an original Vaporwave song playing. I know I stated earlier that it would be nonsensical for people of the future to be listening to music from a century ago, but hear me out. Vaporwave is a caricature of corporate commodified music. The music it's re-structuring is designed to be the least offensive, most generic music man can design. Vaporwave actually demolishes said music, and remolds it into something new and interesting. This is what propels my logic to include it into the game. Capitalism is Capitalism. They wouldn't innovate their music if it costs them nothing to keep the same colorless music in the background, but with Vaporwave, it feels like something new at the same time. Some songs that echo that desired feeling are:
豊平区民Toyohirakumin,
Cosmic Cycler, and
luxury elite.
In closing, This took way longer than I thought it would, but I'm passionate about the genre and the music, so I hope whoever reads this maybe sees it from a different perspective. I made
a playlist on Spotify featuring the artists I mentioned and much more that I'm still adding songs to. I also made
this video featuring a small mix of said playlist along with some visuals, with a part 2 I'm working on currently. If you made it this far, thanks for coming to my TED Talk. Cheers.
